After three years, my Samsung Galaxy cell phone began to fail. It would freeze whenever I'd try to do two things at once. For example, if I was calling someone and I received a text at the same time, the whole phone would freeze and I'd have to remove the battery. Then the screen started to flip out when I opened apps. Check my email - static. So we picked up a new phone for me on Friday.
I thought about upgrading to the new Galaxy. My husband has the HTC EVO 4G LTE and, after a bit of research, I realized that the phones were pretty similar. I originally got the Galaxy because it had a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. Apparently I am a dying breed and keyboards on smartphones are almost impossible to find. The woman at Sprint did offer me a Motorola that had the keyboard but I had already decided on the HTC.

So far, I'm liking the HTC. Everything seems to move a bit faster than it did on my Galaxy. (I am taking into consideration that my Galaxy was old and I loaded a lot of stuff on it.) My only hesitation with the phone is that it is so thin. But I got a cute purple hard case for it so it doesn't feel as fragile. Hopefully I'll still enjoy this phone a few years down the road.
